How Louisville handles holidays

In the Urban Services District there is no collection on Metro Government holidays. A holiday causes a one-day delay, and all remaining collections that week are also one day later.

The page says waste collection and does not itemize trash, recycling and yard or bulk. It says to check alerts or use Recycle Coach for weekend holidays.
